Halotherapy

Salt Therapy is Proven to Better Your Health

Salt Therapy, also referred to as Halotherapy, is a drug-free holistic therapy that recreates the microclimate of a salt cave and helps treating respiratory conditions such as cold, flu, allergies, asthma, bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, sinus infections, sinusitis, rhinitis, hay fever and emphysema. In addition, the anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of salt therapy effectively treat skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis. Salt Therapy can dramatically enhance sports and singing performances and improve lung function by increasing lung capacity and stamina. It has no side effects and helps build your immune system.

Salt Therapy helps treat several health conditions:

Halotherapy offers relief to sufferers of asthma, smokers cough and bronchitis by opening the airways and expelling the mucus which is clogging the bronchi. Once the mucous becomes looser, it is easily cleared from the system. Clinical trials have shown similar results. The majority of patients treated with salt therapy showed clinical improvements in their symptoms causing researchers to conclude that salt chamber treatment as a complementary therapy to conventional medication has been proven very effective. Inhalation of salt aerosol is clinically proven to cleanse the respiratory system of the human body and to speed up the elimination of toxins.

An estimated 35 million people in the U.S. suffer from seasonal allergies, including people in Las Vegas.Spring allergies are very common in the valley. The main culprits are pollen, mulberry and juniper. Weeds can also cause allergy problems. During the spring, pollen is released.

Airborne allergens, ranging from pollen and dust to mould spores, per dander and fibres, are the most common reasons for allergies. If allergies are not treated, they can also lead to nasal polyps or swollen nasal turbinates. Common symptoms are: coughing, wheezing, red, swollen eyes, sore throat, frequent nosebleeds, postnasal drip, mouth ulcers, heartburn, irritability and depression.

Dry sodium chloride aerosol eliminates airborne pollen particles from the airways. The air composition strengthens immunity and better immunity decreases allergic reaction to pollens and other allergens. The treatment’s efficacy is estimated at 75 – 98%. Patients normally choose to stop using antihistamine, steroids and other drugs after 5-10 sessions. Halotherapy is 100% natural, safe and drug-free, providing effective long-term relief for people suffering from allergies such as hayfever. It can be used as a complementary treatment to prescribed medications or as a sole treatment.

A patient suffering from common cold displays symptoms of runny nose, sneezing nasal and sinus blockage, headache and sore throat. Flu infects the airway tract in the nose and throat that can sometimes spread down into the lungs. People with the flu virus experience symptoms like body aches, high fever, dry cough, red eyes, weakness, flushed skin and dry cough.

If you are suffering from cold or flu, salt therapy will bring you relief by opening the nasal airways, killing bacteria and facilitating the drainage of the sinuses. If you are suffering from chest congestion you will start breathing easier as the Halotherapy accelerates mucous clearance from your lungs.

The salt therapy is known to be helpful with skin deseases such as eczema and psoriasis. Eczema (also known as dermatitis) is a dry skin condition which comes in many different forms. In mild cases of eczema the skin is dry, scaly, red and itchy. In more severe cases there may be weeping, crusting and bleeding.

Studies indicate that nutrients found in salt are essential to your skin, immune system, circulation and body to replenish moisture and offset the harmful toxins we naturally ingest.

Salt therapy also reduces stress as it creates relaxation environment for your body. By sitting in an allergen-free and negative ion charged salt room or a salt cave with soft lighting increases the relaxation effect. Such environment greatly helps people suffering from chronic depression, fatigue, or just daily stressful life.

Living in a city like Las Vegas, it is impossible to avoid second-hand smoke. The salt therapy sessions will help you reduce the negative effects of first or second-hand smoking. Inhalation of salt aerosol is clinically proven to cleanse the respiratory system of the human body and to speed up the elimination of toxins.
